Topic: Can we have a signature size limit?

Posts 1 to 20 of 59

I think some people may be abusing the signature option at the moment, I just saw a post with sixteen lines of text as their signature. I don't want to be scrolling down past this guy's signature every time he posts.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

Do you think mine is too long, cause I can shorten it if you want.

Wii friend code: 4851 0320 2775 0243 MarioKart Wii: 3008 3258 4955 Super Smash Bros Brawl: 3180 1076 7318

I've edited some of the worst offenders down to remove some unnecessary line breaks, but it would be good to get a strict limit in place. Two lines tops should do it, I think.

I'd like that.

I've wanted a two-line restriction for a really long time.

If you want to get all your Friend Codes in one place click the link in my sig and sign up. It tracks collections and friend codes among other stuff. A bunch of my friends on there are members here.

Stalk me on my Twitter.

A fixed limit would be a good idea, maybe updating of the profiles pages are in order, to give a codes section for those wanting to trade codes so as not to take up too much screen space with such info.

true. I think the profile pages need a rehashing so as to reduce all the excess space taken up by links and codes in the signatures.

Why doesn't everybody just show a little self control? And two lines? That's a bit stingy, howza about 5 max?

Rawr!

Despite the fact that I've already exceded the limit, I would be entirely in support of a 2-line max. (Or 3, on Christmas and Easter.)

I support this idea.

And?

I've said a very long time ago that these two page signatures need to go and nobody should need more than a couple lines.

If you limit people to 2 lines, then they'll just copy n paste from a notepad document, and then place it at the bottom of every post, and then you are back to square one.

No, that'd be disruptive posting.

Those posts could be moderated.

Hey Pro you didn't tell these guys what you did? How in the world are they supposed to know not to change it back to how it was?

Great example right HERE.

Email, carrier pigeon, PM (oh yeah we don't have those) anything to tell these people that the change in their sig was intentional.

@OP
Tell Nintendo to give us less FCs then.

I am going to edit my sig to a "Brutus-style" to conserve space with my FCs soon though.

Seriously? Each code needs its own line?

And how many people have you exchanged Endless Ocean and Nights friend codes with?

Same goes for Toddr. It's bad enough people include every possible code they have, but it's like they intentionally try to take as much space as possible with each number having its own line.

I only have one code posted, but that's because I'm too lazy to post the rest when I doubt I'll ever actually play online with anybody anyway due to lack of WiiSpeak support in like, every game.

@metakirbyknight: I was looking at your backloggery, but I couldn't find any friend codes at all. Do they not display to random page visitors or something?

My Backloggery Updated sporadically. Got my important online ID's on there, anyway. :P

@AlexSays
More than you'd think, half a dozen for each at least. And did you not read my previous post? Wow, way to be an instigator.

How 'bout now buddy, that better?! V

Stuff like "games im playing" & "most anticipated games" is unnecessary for a signature also, it isn't really usefull and to be honest nobody really cares, its just annoying scrolling through it 10 times per thread.
